many thanks
Hello @luke_mersh
Do you mean you have created a static block and want to display it on a category page?
Each category page has one option under the design section to show products, static blocks or both. You can use them. If your requirements are different then please excuse me.
No
I have created a new page for each category and i want to use the widget to show only product from a particular category, not all products.
found this article:

Dont understand how blocks work.

Thanks
Thank you for that post.
As I am a newbie, I am not good with php coding.
I thought there would be a built in widget that was already created that could help me.
I will look at how to create this and test it out.
many thanks
So far I have created independent pages for each subcategory.
but what I want to achieve is to display the corresponding subcategory product on each page.
I know that you guys have shared some info with me, but I am not working locally.
I am trying to create these widgets or blocks whatever you want to call them from within admin panel.
I see the php code and the list.phtml, but as I am a newbie I dont know where or how to create and place these files.
I did try, but without success so far, probably because I am not doing it correctly.
I would appreciate lots of help for this issue.
many thx in advance
